Posted by Good Guys on

Hello, Good Guys friends,

Welcome to The Good Guys Notes #12

Today, we will share one of our favorite Vegan recipes, the Vegan Spam Musubi ala Yaya. Thanks for being here and reading our Good Guys Notes when we find the time to share something we like with you!

Take your apron and get in your kitchen if you are hungry for a good ol' Vegan Spam Musubi*.

*Note: we are using "Omnifoods" vegan steak to replace the original non-vegan SPAM, but you can easily use Tempeh, Tofu, or Seitan instead if you do not have access to Omnifoods in your part of the world.

You can look at the video to understand the process of making the final Vegan Musubi.

"Below find the recipe in images and in words (copy & paste)"

Then add water until Rice gets nice and sticky
When rice is ready, mix with 1/3 Cup of B&W Sesame seeds.

Cook the Vegan SPAM in a cast-iron pan
The marinated SPAM shouldn’t stick; oil the pan if you need to.
3 1/2 minutes on each side
Add the rest of the marinade throughout 
4/Nori
Cut your regular-size NORI sheets at 2 1/2 stripes.
One sheet of Nori should provide two stripes to make two Musubis; a thin band should remain. Eat it while you cook! 

5/ MAKE MUSUBI!!!!
Lay your Nori on a clean cutting board
Make a Ball of rice (1/2 cup or to taste)
Compress the rice well or if you have a MUSUBI MAKER, use it!

Lay it on the Nori
Lay SPAM on top
Wet fingers in warm water
Wet the Top of your Nori
Close Nori (It should stick where it’s wet)
HERE YOU HAVE IT :Vegan SPAM MUSUBI!!!!
Serve on a plate 2 or 3 per person (3 because it’s dee-licious and you’re going to want more!!!)
